$L^q$-norm bounds for arithmetic eigenfunctions via microlocal Kakeya-Nikodym estimate
Abstract
Let $X$ be a compact arithmetic congruence hyperbolic surface, and let $\psi$ be an $L^2$-normalized Hecke-Maass form on $X$ with sufficiently large spectral parameter $\lambda$. We give a new proof to obtain a power saving for the global $L^6$-norm $\|\psi\|_{L^6(X)}\lesssim_\varepsilon\lambda^{\frac{5}{36}+\varepsilon}$ over the local bound $\|\psi\|_{L^6(X)}\lesssim\lambda^{\frac{1}{6}}$ of Sogge. Our method uses a microlocal decomposition for $\psi$ and reduces the $L^6$-norm problem to microlocal Kakeya-Nikodym estimates for $\psi$, and we establish improved microlocal Kakeya-Nikodym estimates via arithmetic amplification developed by Iwaniec and Sarnak.
